I came from a fairly large family. I also have five brothers and five sisters.
My parents were farmers in the rural area of Mississippi. We were a poor family and not much money ran through our household. My father was a farmer. And in his spare time he use to freelance and take odd jobs to help support the well being of such large family back then. He took odd jobs such as fixing on peoples cars, or doing their yard work to fill in for the extra income between jobs outside of the work he got paid for in farming on the Russell plantations. So we mostly survived on home grown meats and vegetables and fruits.
I will start out by telling you a bit about myself so that we can get a little bit better acquainted. I am an outgoing person. I have a very pleasant personality. And I consider myself to be honest and open minded. I love to laugh and I love to make people laugh. I have a strong and combative nature, I am ambitious, I have a good sense of humor, and a desire to conquest and overcome negative obstacles.
I’ve been told that I have good intuition and the ability to read others, their motivations and their intentions, their strength and their weakness. But apparently I don’t always use those qualities when it comes to the matters of the heart.
Which brings me to sharing this part of my life with you. Now you might say. “Wow Mattie’s life story, so what, everybody has a life story.”
Well, my life story is one of inspirational matter, and I’ve been told by
many other that I need to share it with the world. So in doing so, I hope to
inspire you into believing in yourself no matter what life brings your way. Just
as I have to do at this very moment in my life.
Right now at this very moment in my life I have hit what is known as “Rock Bottom.” I’ve lost everything I had, or you can say, I’ve lost everything my family had, which was not very much. But I worked very hard for what I did have.
Alright, I know your wondering or saying, “Yeah, same old story, she either was on drugs or on the streets using drugs, or possibly a gambler of some sort.”. But no, not the contrary its just the exact opposite. I never used drugs, I do not gamble, and I never worked in or on the streets.
I’m a single mother, a widow for the past twenty one years. You see it could happen to you what happened to me. I would like to share my life story with you, in hopes that what happened to me will not happen to you.view less
